I just sent him a simple email and the link -

Hi Hank- one of our Thoracic Outlet Syndrome {TOS} forum members saw the announcement about your diagnosis and surgery.
We would love to hear of your surgical outcome and recovery.
Be very careful during recovery and follow drs orders on activities and modifications until healed.
We don't usually hear many famous people getting this Dx.
If you would like to read more on TOS feel free to visit our forum.
Or forum link is- http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/sh...ad.php?t=20141

We do hope you have a fantastic recovery and are able to play fully soon.

And the articles I saw never clarified if it was a extra c rib or the top rib being removed- ya know they have to simplify and put a spin on it - for the management, team & fans.
